Hello mle4313,

"On Windows Vista and Windows 7, Spybot-S&D might tell you that you are not authorized to perform some actions, since they require Administrator rights. You can solve this problem as follows:

  1. Right-click the Spybot - Search & Destroy entry in your start menu, instead of just left-clicking to start it.
  2. Choose Run as administrator from the context menu."
From our FAQ here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/42.html

There is also a screen shot which should help. :)

Best regards.

This is what I am doing. I am opening spybot and right clicking on Run as Administrator. It WILL NOT WORK.
 
Hello,

Please try this:
rightclick the Spybot icon, select Properties, Compatibility Tab, and under Privilege level, checkmark "Run this program as an administrator", then click Apply, and OK.

Best regards
